    A1706 MBP 820-00239-09 Issues

    I have a 2016 A1706 Macbook Pro touchbar.

    Board will take 20.1 v from charger. Amps range from .4 to .9. Jump back and forth.

    Fans turn on, beeps when plug charger up, and caps lock light will turn on and off.

    13.1 V stable at ppbus.

    Board is clean, no obvious burnt chips, no water damage.

    CPU never gets warm and no display.

    Where to go from here. Im Stumped.

    Try a SMC reset.

      Tried that still same result.

      Should the C1161 (located below CPU) read to ground on pins 1 and 3. According to boardview. Pin 1 is ppvccgt_s0_cpu and 2 is ground. But both read to ground terminals

        No, but be careful on your measurements. How accurate is your multimeter?

        Select the lowest scale on your tool -> remove all power -> now measure the resistance to ground with your multimeter.

        Being a CPU, it is a low voltage semiconductor and the resistance is expected to be low.

        What is the EXACT resistance in ohms that your meter is reading ?

        From past experience, we had an A1398 CPU @ 1 ohms and the logic board worked fine (measured on our Fluke 87V meter).

          Meter is a milwaukee TRMS, not a expensive meter. I have a couple of flukes at my office that are more accurate, im sure. This is just the meter i use everyday to do electrical work.

          I am getting 4.9 ohms between ground and pin 1. Which seems quite high

            I think you are fine here. In diode mode, the meter will beep as a short condition.

              I also did notice with my thermal cam that the cpu was getting warm. That’s how I zeroed in on this chip. It was showing hot on the thermal cam.

              I can plug power up and hear the beep, like plugging in a iPhone to charge. Fans start spinning, caps lock light will turn on and off, and fans then start spinning faster, like top speed. But nothing else happens. All usb c ports get same result.

                  M1 A2338 screen and touchbar issues after cleaning up liquid damage
                  by jkruns
                  Hello everyone,

                  This is my first post after browsing this wonderful treasure trove of knowledge for many, many evenings. I've decided to learn how to fix these things, properly.

                  My patient is an A2338 Macbook Pro M1 (late 2020).

                  It had some corrosion around JT710 and JT700 caused by liquid spill, as well as against the protective barrier around the USB-C chips UF000 and UF100. So I took the main board out and cleaned it with a toothbrush and alcohol, then with alcohol in an ultrasonic cleaner. Cleaned the touchbar flex connectors as well. The board looks...

                  how to prevent a connected charger from draining battery when not charging?
                  by flat-earther
                  I have an RC radio handset(Taranis QX7) which doesn't have internal battery charger which means I had to remove the battery every time I needed to charge it.
                  So to improve it, I added a 15W USB-C charger board(link) inside and soldered it to the same connector on the PCB where the battery plugs into, great, now I can simply charge it with a USB-C cable.

                  but the problem I found is that after the radio sat for two weeks without being used the 2S 18650 battery that I'm using was at 4.2V!
                  So the battery is backfeeding the charger and being drained.

                  How can I prevent...

                  ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
                  by flat-earther
                  The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

                  Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

                  This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
                  Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
                  If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

                  by coasterghost
                  For Badcaps Readers, Please note that I am hopefully going to present this same message to Lenovo to see if they have any insight to the matter as well and figured to share the entirety here for clarification. The System is out of warranty as it is but does have the option to have it extended.
